7.1 GENErAL
Commissioning should be carried out by a competent person in accordance with the current issue of BS6798 / The Building Regulations.
Make sure that the system has been thoroughly flushed out with cold water. Refill the system with water, making sure that all the air is
properly vented from the heating system and the boiler. The boiler vent valve is located on top of the boiler (near the flue connection).
A suitable hose should be connected to the boiler vent valve for purging the air from the boiler, Before operating the boiler check that
all external controls are calling for heat.
This boiler is designed for use in a sealed system. Therefore fill the sealed system until the pressure reading on the boiler display (see
section 3) registers the design pressure (or the recommended pressure of 1 bar). Clear any air locks and check for leaks. Check the
operation of the safety valve, preferably by allowing the water pressure to rise until the valve lifts. This should be within ± 0.14 bar of
the preset pressure of 3.0 bar. Where this is not possible a manual check should be carried out. The system pressure should then be
reduced to the initial design pressure.
Important Notes:
(a)
To prevent corrosion in the system and to prevent deterioration of the efficiency of the system and components, it is important
that the system commissioning, cleansing and dosing should comply with BS7593 requirements before it is handed over to the
customer (see also section 4. (b)).
(b)
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system will invalidate the appliance warranty.
